Vision

We envision building a decentralized self-governed cooperatively-run global community of people who share our mission, and channeling our collective efforts (goodwill?) to push the boundaries of scientific discourse and communication (does that sound redundant?) as we know it.


[ social.coop's vision: We envision building, owning and controlling our own technology as a community, in order to achieve collective liberation and care for the intricate world of which we are a part.]

Mission

[social.coop's mission is a cooperative node of the 'fediverse' social network, pioneering an open approach to co-owning and co-operating our online platforms.]

Neuromatch is a 501c3 not-for-profit organization in the United States. We are an international online community of computational neuroscientists whose mission is to foster inclusive global interactions for learning, mentorship, networking, and professional development.

With our mastodon instance, our mission is to democratize science.

What does that mean? Democratization is the act of making something accessible to everyone. Neuromatch seeks to make science accessible to all by allowing all people from all backgrounds equal access to education and networking opportunities, and providing everybody an equitable voice in scientific contribution.
